But when it comes to other refs and especially supervisors/observers, doing it right does matter.

So can anybody say for sure? Seems as though we have highly regarded officials answering differently.
And this why even most officials who are there aren't going to care where you shot the FTs. The answer is difficult enough to find, the focus will be on the itself in any post-game discussions among refs.
